Wish List

To the best of my knowledge the following articles also discuss An Unfortunate Woman, but I do not have a copy. If you have a copy and would be willing to share it with the Brautigan community, please contact me at birgit at cybernetic-meadows.net.

Help improve the Brautigan Archives: The Brautigan Archives were conceived as a place for Brautigan fans and scholars to share ideas and information on the life and work of Richard Brautigan. If you have written an article on Brautigan or one of the other authors referred to in the Archives, or if you have read an article that is not included in the Archives but of possible interest to the Brautigan community, please get in touch with me at birgit at cybernetic-meadows.net.
